Electrical System
Door Locks
Windscreen Washers &  Wipers
The windscreen washer bottle should be filled
with a solution of water and a proprietary winter
screen wash additive. The windscreen  wipers
should not be used if  the blades are frozen to
the  windscreen  or  if  they  are  covered  with
snow, before this is removed.
Winter conditions impose severe demands upon
vehicle electrical systems, particularly the charg-
ing  circuit. The  battery condition  and  perfor-
mance along  with the alternator  performance
and drive belt condition should be checked prior
to the onset of winter.
Should the door lock mechanism become  fro-
zen, a proprietary lock de-icer should be used.
Alternatively, warming the door key may  thaw
the  door  lock.  However, the  key  should  be
handled carefully to avoid burning the fingers.
Never attempt to thaw a frozen door lock using
hot water, since the water will eventually freeze
and compound the problem.
NOTE:
Never allow undiluted  screen washer fluid
additive to spill upon the  paintwork or use
engine coolant anti-freeze since damage to
the paintwork may result.

NOTE:
Anti-freeze/Corrosion  inhibitor
The  cooling system  must always  contain  an
Ethylene-Glycol based anti-freeze solution. The
system is filled  during manufacture with solu-
tion  of the  correct strength  which  should be
checked before the onset of winter and adjust-
ed or changed as required.
The proper temperature for using the immo-
bilizer key is  from -40°F to 176°F  (-40°C to
80°C). If you heat the  immobilizer key over
176°F to open the frozen lock, it may cause
damage to the transponder in its head.
o
When  driving  in  extreme  conditions,  the
windscreen wiper  blades may fail  to clear
the screen properly due to the formation of
ice upon the blade edge. It will therefore be
necessary to periodically  remove such ice
to restore their efficiency.
NOTE:
The anti-freeze  solution contains  a corro-
sion inhibitor to prevent degradation of the
aluminium  castings  contained  within  the
engine. Therefore, never, drain the  system
and refill with water only.
o
o
If the power operated door mirrors become
frozen, attempts to adjust these  may dam-
age the mechanism.
The formation of snow or ice build up inside
the  wheel  arches  may interfere  with  the
roadwheels or steering mechanism. In such
instances, unusual noises or an increase in
steering effort may result. Therefore, ensure
that the  wheelarches are checked periodi-
cally and any accumulated snow  or ice re-
moved.
In addition, anti-freeze solution must ALWAYS
be used in vehicles fitted with air conditioning,
to prevent the heater matrix from freezing and
subsequently bursting with the refrigeration sys-
tem in use.
